Hello everyone! I have a card to show you today. I saw Joy Taylor’s card over at CASE Study and I so inspired!

I used the die cut element on her card and used that as a focal point of my card. I added four shades of green water colours. After the paint was dry, I went in and added fluorescent yellow and green with Crayola markers.

I didn’t want to use a plain green base so I went ahead and water coloured the background with the brightest and lightest green I had and while it was still semi wet, I drew horizontal lines with various greens of Crayola markers. As most of you know that Crayola’s are washable markers and because I used them on semi wet CS, the colours started to merge together reducing the harshness of the lines.

This is my first time participating in the Hero Arts challenge. I know I wont be getting anywhere with just a sentiment stamp but this is what I have.

Hope you guys like my card and the lines thingy! Leave a comment and I will stop by your blog for sure. One request, please turn off word verification! The new word verification sucks big time, I can’t read it!! I get it wrong ALWAYS!

I love the bold slashes of green E.. Absolutely wonderful the way you have used the negative of the die cut to come up with this stunner.. and the different shades of green really give it an earthy feeling...!!

You are pure Genius! This is so stunning. Love how the splatters soften the die cut shape & of course how you added texture on the bottom layer. Wow! (And a huge congrats on being the CASE study winner. You are such an inspiration!!!!)

This card is so stunning, simple but very effective. I love the use of colour against the pure white cardstock very striking. Well done and thank you for coming along and joining us over at Craftymess. Great Big Huge Hugs Becca xx
